This package provides an easy to work with class to convert pdf's to images.

Spatie is a webdesign agency in Antwerp, Belgium. You'll find an overview of all our open source projects on our website.

You should have Imagick installed. On Ubuntu you can install it by issuing this command:

sudo apt-get install imagemagick php5-imagick

The package can be installed via composer:

$ composer require spatie/pdf-to-image

Converting a pdf to an image is easy.

$pdf = new Spatie\PdfToImage\Pdf($pathToPdf);
$pdf->saveImage($pathToWhereImageShouldBeStored);

If the path you pass to saveImage has the extensions jpg, jpeg, or png the image will be saved in that format. Otherwise the output will be a jpg.

##Other methods You can get the total number of pages in the pdf:

$pdf->getNumberOfPages(); //returns an int

By default the first page of the pdf will be rendered. If you want to render another page you can do so:

$pdf->setPage(2)
    ->saveImage($pathToWhereImageShouldBeStored); //saves the second page

You can override the output format:

$pdf->setOutputFormat('png')
    ->saveImage($pathToWhereImageShouldBeStored); //the output wil be a png, no matter what
